Expecting a new baby is very exciting! Getting the nursery ready for a little girl is very fun, but it can make your head spin when you are looking at all the different choices for design and color.
Pink is the traditional color but if you want to jazz it up and make it a little more un-traditional, try using a different shade of pink and coordinate it with a complimentary color.
For example, pink and chocolate brown is a new and trendy look.
Add some prints such as florals, ginghams, polka dots and plaids to give the room an updated and contemporary look.
Different styles instead of "themes" are preferred today.
These include contemporary, country, eclectic, feng shui, modern, nautical and animals.
Create a nurturing, comforting haven for your newborn with these decorating ideas: *chocolate brown/pastels for a gender-neutral modern look *pink/chocolate brown for a trendy look *lavender/white for a whimsical look *pink/white for a traditional look *turquoise/white for a gender-neutral organic and stylish look Another idea is to start with neutral or subdued colors for the walls.
Add pops of bright color in the bedding, wall art, rugs, and window treatments.
Orange, bright red, citrusy yellow and lime green all show a fun and modern look without being too boyish or girly.
Some of these looks don't even look "babyish"! No matter what today's designs are, in the end, the Nursery needs to please only your baby and you.
Buy what you love and have it reflect your lifestyle and your home.
Have fun with this!
